Israel Develops Robotic Snake
- Front Page:
I have no clue what they are saying, but its pretty obvious what this thing does. It has a camera which can be used for surveillance. And also provide a visual guide for the operator of the "Snakebot" to take it almost anywhere. You can find more information on similar developments on the wikipedia. Big Surprise huh?
This type of technology has come a long way as you can see from this picture above. This is an example a Generation 2 design by NASA.
Who said billions of dollar never amounted to anything?
There are also companies working on Snakebots which can be used for the purpose of search and rescue among other things. No matter their use, whether military, rescue or scientific exploration, these little critters sure do look like something from a sci-fi movie.
